Televangelist Jim Bakker and his church to compensate followers who bought fake COVID remedy pushed Brian Niemietz
Religious fraudster Jim Bakker and his Morningside Church Productions Inc. organization will pay $156,000 restitution to consumers who bought the Silver Solution COVID-19 remedy he was pushing in the early stages of the pandemic.
The Missouri Attorney General’s office announced that it had reached an agreement with Bakker on Tuesday that also prevents the 81-year-old televangelist from telling consumers the panacea he’s pimped on television can “diagnose, prevent, mitigate, treat or cure any disease or illness.”
Bakker admits no wrongdoing in the agreement, which his attorneys say presented “no findings whatsoever that our clients violated any laws or misled.”
